"Lady Soul" is an R&B song recorded by the Motown group The Temptations for their 1986 album To Be Continued. The mid-tempo ballad has Ali-Ollie Woodson praising his "lady" for warming his "heart" and making him "whole".

Described as "super" by AllMusic critic Ron Wynn,^[1] "Lady Soul" was one of the last Temptations single to make the Top Ten on the US R&B Chart. The single peaked at #4 on the Soul Charts and #47 on the US Hot 100. It proved that Motown, even into the late 1980s, was still releasing "interesting" and "entertaining" material by its veteran artists.^[2]
